Double Coated Polyester Tape

4980 is a 3.1 mil, transparent, double coated polyester tape used to mount plastic parts in the electronics industry. The adhesive system is especially resistant to plasticizers and offers a secure bond even at elevated temperatures. 4980 is a very well balanced combination of holding power, bonding strength & temperature performance to cover a wide range of lamination substrates and to resist shear stresses.
